I am a positively absolutely shy girl. I have trouble even reading in class or even asking my parents (who I have known for 16 years) for things so I know a lot about reading a shy girl. If she smiles a lot when you come around or even if she leaves or just is completely quiet when you come around that's a dead give- away. She is totally into you. Also I find that it is easier to talk to my friends and when they bring new people around I keep to myself. So get really acquainted with her also make lots of jokes because laughter is a way to get anyone to open up. If she is a one word girl don't ask questions that require a whole explanation ask little things like what her favorite band is or talk about the classes she takes and the teachers. Also I like it when a guy notices small things like my laugh or a change in my hair or clothes. Also if the girl is really shy she'll want a lot of attention from you but not everyone else so if you two go out try to keep the amount of people to a minimum and keep to a crowd that she knows get to know her friends and she'll warm up to you quickly.

Here are some ideas:
During a lull in class conversation, ask an "open-ended" question which requires more thought than a "yes/no" type question, i.e. "Do you know of any study groups for this subject?" "What are you taking this class for?" or "I missed that last part of the lecture, would you mind telling me about it?" or get a glimpse into her habits and ask, "So, any plans for this weekend?"
Also, watch her body language. Does she lean toward you? Does she turn towards you when you two speak? Does she make eye contact? Even a little is polite!
Want to make her wonder? Give her a compliment right before the end of class the last day of the week you have it. It'll give her time to think about it. Don't go for, "My you have beauitful eyes!" Try something like, "I wish I was as organized as you are." or "Maybe if I dressed as well as you, maybe the professor would take me seriously."

Well I am not inherently shy, but if I like a guy, it is almost impossible to SAY anything.
This sometimes becomes a problem, cause he will think I just don't like him... So first of all be patient.. Also open ended questions give her an opportunity to get to tell you about herself, but if she does not talk much don't go away.. If YOU talk, or do not get stressed not talking, she should be more comfortable... The WORST thing is when you feel put on the spot.lol easy! she will have a permanent smile on her face whenever you're talking to her. she may not have loads to say maybe because you make her nervous, in a good way ofcourse. that happens to me, when the guy I like talks to me I'm at a loss for words...yes, no, maybe...thats all I can manage to say. so instead ask her something that she can respond to easily. like what's her interests or something, because everyone loves to talk about themselves.
I'm a shy girl... and I'm pretty sure you will be able to tell if you just watch for things like her touching her hair, fixing her shirt etc. If I have to sit next to the person I like, then most of the time I don't talk to him unless he talks to me because I don't want him to be all oh my god, she's really bothering me. Just keep talking to her and she will probably become comfortable with you soon.
I'm semi shy and with me the way you can figure out if I'm shy is I will look at my crush a lot and when we are sitting next to each other I really won't talk unless he says something to me. And see if she messes with her hair when you talk to her because most girls that's a dead giveaway.
the world may never know, with shy girls...What is the tone of her voice? Even if her repsonses are short, does she seem bubbly or happy to respond?
shy girls are extremely hard to figure out...the bet is to chat with her online and see how she responds to your messages...
sincerely, shy girl-try complementing her. that will always make a girl swoon. but not too much complementing. just one a day.
